Khloe
Kardashian wants fans to know that her success has not come easy.

In a blog
post published on Wednesday, the reality star and TV host opened up about the
struggles she and her sisters experienced when opening their flagship store,
DASH, a decade ago.

Despite what
some may think, Khloe said the venture was a risky one because she, Kim and
Kourtney were operating with almost zero business knowledge or start-up cash.

"We literally had no money," she wrote. "The
three of us bought all our own inventory, cleaned the store, did our own taxes
– everything."

While
Kourtney already had retail work under her belt helping mom Kris Jenner operate
her children's store, Khloe said the trio still "bought business books and
asked friends for advice" to prepare themselves to run things on their
own.
